ハーレム・ノクターン 胸毛もあるのよ

 一部で報道されたが、フジテレビが俳優の松方弘樹を暴排条例に抵触しかねない危険人物として、極秘に使用禁止の通達を出したという。続いて日本テレビが、女優の水野美紀に関して、同じ理由で使用禁止の通達を流したそうだ。テレビ局がナーバスになっている問題だけに、2人は事実上テレビ界から追放されたといっていいだろう。だが、果たして、テレビ局に特定の芸能人を”出入り禁止”にするだけの調査能力があるものなのかと疑ってかかっていたら、案の定、それらの情報は芸能プロからの提供されたものだったということが分かった。しかも、その芸能プロは、フジと日テレに絶大な影響力を持つ、大手プロダクション関係者だという。
 松方と水野の共通点は、テレビ局にも甚大な影響力を持つ大手芸能プロ「バーニングプロダクション」から独立していることだ。松方は今年8月にバーニングから独立したあ(ママ)が、事務所との間に金銭トラブルを抱えていたといわれ、円満独立ではなかった。水野も05年に事務所の反対を押し切って独立したことで、フジテレビの人気ドラマ『踊る大捜査線』のレギュラーからも外され、一時芸能界から干されていた時期があった。

なぜ事務所レベルで判定しないのか不思議です。
マル暴とつながってる芸能事務所はゴマンとあるのに・・・

Tangos Inolvidables – Uno

ついにリビアのカダフィ大佐の死亡が確認された。大佐を最後まで警護していたとみられるのが、女性ばかりで構成する「カダフィ・ガール」だ。常にカダフィ氏に密着していただけに、政権の内情を多く知っているのは間違いない。政権末期には「カダフィ氏らに性的暴行を受けた」と証言するメンバーもおり、今後、「暴露合戦」が始まる可能性もある。
この部隊は、カダフィ氏が公職を辞任した上で「革命指導者」を名乗りだした直後の1980年代初期に結成されたとされる。女性ばかりで構成された背景には、(1)男性は注意散漫(2)アラブの男性は女性に対して発砲するのをためらう、といったことがあるようだ。

ひとくちに動物といってもいろいろで、狼やビーバーのように一生「番い」で添え遂げるのもいれば、トドやオットセイのようにハーレムを作って繁殖するのもいます。
英雄色を好むといわれるように人間界の独裁者はたいていこのトドやオットセイの部類でして、マッサージや夜伽のお相手など、身辺の庶務・雑務のあれこれを女性集団にやらせるのが多い。
マァ独裁者の特権でしょうな。

ちなみにブラック・ミュージックに登場するハーレムは、ニューヨークのハーレム地区である場合がほとんどで、その名の由来もトルコ語のハーレムとは関係ありません。

Mamas And Papas – Spanish Harlem(1966)

Augie Moreno – Spanish Harlem(1965/08)

Obscure with a capital’O’ is what can initially describe this tasty L.A. pop disc from the summer of 1965. Then 17 year old East Bakersfield High School student, Augustine Moreno headed south to Hollywood to record his second of only five known singles (the first disc was issued simultaneously on two different labels). The three hour evening session at the legendary Gold Star Recording Studios, was produced by Bob Clark and arranged and conducted by Rene Hall. With engineer Stan Ross at the controls, studio’A’ was booked with an ensemble of L.A.’s’Wrecking Crew’ and the Blossoms to record the Jerry Leiber and Phil Spector tune,’Spanish Harlem’ along with the intended flipside,’Searchin’ The Clock Around’ composed by the duo, Hollins and Bechannan. The production may have been slick, tight and musically on-point but the tiny record label the disc was was issued on, combined with the heavy competition for airplay, not to mention often times just needing to have all of the planets in alignment, aside from local interest, Augie’s record went by without much fanfare (today original copies are quite a desired possession among record collectors). The handsome and talented fellow was promoted in print, performed on stage and television along with recording but fame in the grand scheme of things was not to be for Mr. Moreno. He eventually did however, become what many consider to be one of the millions of unsung heroes working for the public within the field of law enforcement which he did for over 35 years.
Today, Augie Moreno is retired living in central California.

It was on the charts simultaneously with the final Drifters-King release “I Count The Tears” and immediately preceded King’s classic “Stand By Me” (also included in this 1961 collection).

Named after the famous Savoy Ballroom in New York City, the jazz standard was composed by Edgar Sampson during his time with the Chick Webb band. Webb recorded it first in 1934, though the 1936 Benny Goodman recording remains the best-known
